did you have problems with the surgery?

Doc said the surgery was long, when I woke up I was in soon much pain. I was a revision from lapband to RNY. They were giving my pain meds in the IV but still the pain was horrible. Doc said it went great, my test results were great but he said u really look bad and I felt horrible. I think my first walk was day 2 and that was getting up and going to the restroom and i felt like i ran a race. Day 3 i walked the hall but could not do the lap. He made me stay so they could watch me.

I didn't have to fart 'for' them, sorry :D but they ask and I wasn't doing jack so I told em the truth...for better or for worse....it always takes my gut a couple days to wake up...I know this, he knows this, yet I ended up with 2 suppositories and 2 enemas (WHICH DID NOTHING!!!) and an extra nights stay, only to wake up the next day with gas....just like I'd freaking told him. I was tempted to chase down my doc and beat him with an enema. It got ugly...god bless the nurse that had to do em.

I went in Thursday morning, out Friday night. I didn't start with the gas till the Saturday. farting was not a condition of my release. Peeing WAS. :-)

This cracked me up! But they didn't even ask me if I'd farted. I hadn't when I left hospital. They did require that I pee before I left though.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
